well put post
@LowerSouth
its very true that residents are wary of change, anywhere
Im guessing that there was serious opposition in the Kidlington to Oxford Parkway before it was built.
I do wonder how many who opposed it out of principle before it was built are still opposed to it? I d think relatively few, as most will have used the train station and or the park and ride, or for that matter the covid testing station when it was there, since it has opened
If the stadium on the triangle gets the go ahead Sept 19th, the club, when they start to release formal plans etc, should include as much as they can in the way of facilities that residents can use. The more that benefits the locals directly the more the opposition will fade away, leaving a very small group of North Oxford based millionaires, a handful of green part infiltrators along with KPC chair ,and several anti progress individuals all looking the miserable nimbys they always have been
